Definitions

  • the disclosure relates to Packet Transport Network (PTN) technology, in particular to a method and a system for realizing reachablity of a host route in an access ring of a PTN.
  • PTN Packet Transport Network
  • FIG. 1 is a diagram showing the topological structure of an access ring model in a PTN, as shown in Fig. 1 , a layer-two ring network is formed by interconnection among nodes in a layer-two access ring and a heartbeat wire between convergence nodes 1 and 2; wherein each node in the layer-two access ring is configured with one host address, and the host address is in the same network segment with a layer-three interface address of a node connected with a layer-three route ring.
  • VLAN Virtual Local Area Network
  • the VLAN 100 is configured with a layer-three address 100.1.1.253/24
  • two ports of convergence node 2 which are connected with the layer-two access ring are configured in a VLAN100 and the VLAN 100 is configured with a layer-three address 100.1.1.254/24
  • node 1 of the layer-two access ring is configured with a VLAN100 and a layer-three address 100.1.1.1/24
  • node 2 of the layer-two access ring is configured with a VLAN100 and a layer-three address 100.1.1.2/24
  • access node N is configured with a VLAN100 and a layer-three address 100.1.1.N/24.
  • Fig. 1 when breaks happen to links between the access nodes of the layer-two access ring or to the heartbeat wire between convergence nodes 1 and 2, all the access nodes of the layer-two access ring can smoothly access a convergence node, a core node and other networks.
  • disconnection happens to links between the access nodes of the layer-two access ring and to the heartbeat wire between convergence nodes 1 and 2 at the same time since the interfaces of convergence nodes 1 and 2 connected with the layer-two access ring are configured with two addresses in the same network segment, only one of the routes computed by the core node and other networks by the dynamic route protocol is selected.
  • the route can only reach one of the convergence nodes, i.e., convergence node 1 or 2; and in this way, the core node and other networks have no route to all the access nodes associated with the other convergence node, therefore all the access nodes associated with the other convergence node cannot normally communicate with the core node and other networks.
  • US 2006/0039385 discloses routing a packet by router aggregation.
  • a packet is received from outside the aggregation by an initially receiving router/ switch unit. Router functions are performed by the initially receiving router unit, including modification of the packet.
  • the packet is then sent to a layer 2 network of the aggregation, wherein switching functions are performed on the packet.
  • cooperative aggregation of router/switch units includes a plurality of the router/switch units, and a switching network interconnecting the units.
  • the cooperative aggregation functions as a single router from a perspective of an external network device coupled to the system.
  • US 2002/0046271 discloses stack configuration for interconnecting networks. Software is executed in each internetworking device such that the stack of internetworking devices appear as a single internetworking device to the interconnected networks.
  • Embodiments herein provide a method and a system for realizing reachability of a host route in an access ring of a PTN.
  • the core node and other networks still have a route to all the access nodes associated with the other convergence node, so that all the access nodes associated with the other convergence node can normally communicate with the core node and other networks, thereby improving the capability of the access nodes in the PTN to resist a fault.
  • the method for realizing reachablity of a host route in an access ring of a PTN includes the following steps.
  • Step 201 A function of linkage between an ARP module and a static route module is set at a layer-three interface of a convergence node.
  • the layer-three interface of the convergence node may be provided with a switch for the linkage between the ARP module and the static route module, and the linkage function can be realized after the switch is turned on.
  • the linkage function is realized specifically as follows: after learning an ARP entry about an access node, the ARP module automatically sends a message related to the learned ARP entry about the access node to the static route module; and the static route module sets a corresponding static route entry corresponding to a host address of the access node according to the ARP entry in the message after receiving the message.
  • Step 202 The convergence node automatically updates a learned static route entry corresponding to the host address of the access node according to a learned ARP entry about each access node.
  • convergence node 1 adds a static route entry corresponding to 100.1.1.1/32 to its own static route table after learning an ARP entry corresponding to 100.1.1.1 of access node 1, where 32 represents a mask of 32 bits; and the convergence node 1 learning the ARP entry corresponding to 100.1.1.1 of access node 1 means that the ARP entry corresponding to 100.1.1.1 of access node 1 exists in an ARP cache table in the ARP module of convergence node 1.
  • the convergence node automatically updates a learned static route entry corresponding to a host address of an access node in real time according to a learned ARP entry about each access node.
  • the learned ARP entry about each access node refers to an ARP entry about each access node which is in the same network segment with the layer-three interface of the convergence node; the ARP module of the convergence node first detects whether a layer-three interface in a to-be-learned ARP entry about an access node is in the same network segment with the layer-three interface of the convergence node, if they are in the same network segment, then the ARP entry is learned, otherwise, the ARP entry about the access node is discarded.
  • Step 203 The convergence node reports a current learned static route entry corresponding to the host address of the access node to a core node and other networks according to a dynamic route protocol.
  • the convergence node, core node and other networks update corresponding dynamic route entries in their respective dynamic route tables.
  • the convergence node may send a message of the current learned static route entry corresponding to the host address of the access node to the core node and other networks to report the static route to them.
  • the convergence node reports the static route entry corresponding to the host address of the access node to the core node and other networks in real time according to the dynamic route protocol, therefore, when disconnection happens to links between the access nodes of the access ring and to the heartbeat wire between the convergence nodes at the same time, the core node and other networks can also have a route to all the access nodes associated with the other convergence node, so that all the access nodes associated with the other convergence node can normally communicate with the core node and other networks.
  • Step 201 as shown in Fig. 3 , the method further includes the following steps.
  • Step 301 An access node of the layer-two access ring is configured with a VLAN and a host address, and then Step 302 is executed.
  • configuring a host address is configuring a layer-three address, and a configured layer-three address and a layer-three interface address of a node connected with a layer-three route ring are in the same network segment. For example, as shown in Fig.
  • two ports of convergence node 1 which are connected with a layer-two access ring are configured in a VLAN 100 and the VLAN 100 has a layer-three address 100.1.1.253/24
  • two ports of convergence node 2 which are connected with the layer-two access ring are configured in a VLAN100 and the VLAN 100 has a layer-three address 100.1.1.254/24
  • node 1 of the layer-two access ring is configured with VLAN100 and with a layer-three address 100.1.1.1/24
  • node 2 of the layer-two access ring is configured with VLAN100 and a layer-three address: 100.1.1.2/24
  • access node N is configured with VLAN100 and a layer-three address: 100.1.1.N/24.
  • Step 302 an STP and a dual-gateway default route are configured on the access nodes of the layer-two access ring, and STP transparent transmission, direct routes and static routes are configured on the convergence nodes connected with the access nodes; and then Step 303 is executed.
  • configuring a dual-gateway default route means configuring two default routes, i.e., two convergence nodes, and the function of the default routes lies in: if no route matched with a destination address is found in a route table of an access node, the access node sends a data packet to the two convergence nodes.
  • the direct route may be specifically configured to report a local network segment to other nodes by the dynamic route protocol; and the static route is to allocate a fixed Internet Protocol (IP) address to a Media Access Control (MAC) address corresponding to a node to guide transmission of message data.
  • IP Internet Protocol
  • MAC Media Access Control
  • Step 303 The layer-three interface interconnection and the dynamic route protocol are configured on the nodes of the layer-three route ring.
  • the nodes of the layer-three route ring include: convergence nodes, a core node and other networks, wherein the other networks may be a mobile network, or Internet or the like; and the dynamic route protocol is specifically used for automatically computing an optimal path for data transmission by exchanging information among the nodes of the layer-three route ring and according to the function provided by the dynamic route protocol, so as to obtain a dynamic route table.
  • the converge node learns an ARP entry about each access node in real time according to the connection condition of the access nodes of the access ring, therefore, there may be two circumstances: adding or deleting a host route.
  • the embodiment describes a process of giving a report to a core node and other networks by a convergence node, the implementation of which is as shown in Fig. 4 , including the following steps.
  • Step 401 Layer-three interface interconnection and a dynamic route protocol are configured on nodes of a layer-three route ring, and then Step 402 is executed.
  • the nodes of the layer-three route ring include: convergence nodes, a core node and other networks, wherein said other networks may be a mobile network, Internet or the like.
  • Step 402 An STP and a dual-gateway default route is configured on an access node of a layer-two access ring, and STP transparent transmission, a direct route and a static route are configured on a convergence node connected with the access nodes; and then Step 403 is executed.
  • Step 403 The function of linkage between an ARP module and a static route module are set at layer-three interfaces of the convergence nodes, and then Step 404 is executed.
  • Step 404 The ARP module of the convergence node detects whether a new ARP entry is added, if there is a newly added ARP entry, Step 405 is executed, otherwise, the current processing flow is ended.
  • the access node sends an ARP request to the convergence node after being connected to the PTN, and then the convergence node returns a corresponding ARP response to the access node and adds a corresponding ARP entry in its own ARP cache table after receiving the ARP request, and when the ARP module finds there is an added ARP entry in the ARP cache table, Step 405 is executed.
  • Step 405 The convergence node further determines whether the host address in the added ARP entry and the layer-three interface address of the convergence node are in the same network segment, when it is determined they are in the same network segment, Step 406 is executed, otherwise, the current processing flow is ended.
  • the process of determining whether the host address in the added ARP entry and the layer-three interface address of the convergence node are in the same network segment is: determining whether the host IP address in the added ARP entry is the same as that of the layer-three interface of the convergence node, if they are same, then it is determined they are in the same network segment, and Step 406 is executed, otherwise, the current processing flow is ended.
  • a host IP address of an access node is 100.1.1.1/24, and an IP address of a layer-three interface of a convergence node is 100.1.1.253/24, it is considered that the IP address of the host of the access node is the same as that of the layer-three interface of the convergence node; and if the IP address of the access node is 200.1.1.1/24, and the IP address of the layer-three interface of the convergence node is 100.1.1.253/24, it is considered that the IP address of the host of the access node is different from that of the layer-three interface of the convergence node.
  • a host address of an access node which is in the same network segment with a layer-three interface address of a convergence node can be learned by the convergence node, that is to say, only a host address of an access node in the same network segment can be added to an ARP entry in the ARP cache table of the convergence node.
  • a host address of an access node which is not in the same network segment with a layer-three interface address of a convergence node can never be learned by the convergence node; and this step is executed so as to ensure that a host address added to an ARP entry is in the same network segment with a layer-three interface address of a convergence node.
  • Step 406 The convergence node automatically adds the static route entry corresponding to the host address of the access node according to the newly added ARP entry, and then Step 407 is executed.
  • Step 407 The convergence node reports the added static route to the core node and other networks according to the dynamic route protocol, and then the current processing flow is ended.
  • the convergence node may send a message of the added static route entry corresponding to the host address of the access node to the core node and other networks to report the static route to them.
  • the convergence node, core node and other networks After the core node and other networks receive the report, the convergence node, core node and other networks add dynamic route entries corresponding to the static route in their respective dynamic route tables.
  • the embodiment describes a process of giving a report to a core node and other networks by a convergence node, the implementation of which is as shown in Fig. 5 , including the following steps.

  • Step 503 The layer-three interface of the convergence node is provided with a function of linkage between an ARP module and a static route module, and then Step 504 is executed.
  • Step 504 The ARP module of the convergence node detects whether an ARP entry is deleted, if an ARP entry is deleted, Step 505 is executed, otherwise, the current processing flow is ended.
  • the ARP module of the convergence node sets an aging timer for each ARP entry in an ARP cache table, and the timer is triggered when an ARP entry is not used within a certain period of time, generally within 30s. After such a period of time expires, the convergence node sends an ARP request to an access node, and then the ARP module deletes the ARP entry in the ARP cache table if the convergence node does not receive an ARP response from the access node, and then Step 505 is executed.
  • the duration of the timer is 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Step 505 The convergence node further determines whether a host address in the deleted ARP entry is in the same network segment with a layer-three interface address of the convergence node, if they are in the same network segment, then Step 506 is executed, otherwise, the current processing flow is ended.
